December 1 is World AID’s Day – this global event started in 1988 to raise awareness of HIV and AIDs. Take this opportunity to support people living with HIV, commemorate those who have died and to talk about it with our loved ones so that we can all be aware of how it is transmitted.

In the mean time take two minutes out of your day to enjoy this gorgeous and colourful animated video teaching us what condoms can and – more importantly – can’t protect us from 😛

It is estimated that as of 2013, 26,800 people in Australia are living with a diagnosed HIV infection. Food for thought.
